Government of Wales Bill

: Does the hon. Gentleman accept that the current settlement was endorsed by the people of Wales in a referendum and that we are now looking to give greater powers to the Welsh Assembly? Irrespective of whether we move to primary powers for which there would be a referendum, does he not agree that the people of Wales must be trusted? They voted once for what we have now and they must be allowed to vote again for a change in the settlement.
